I really don't get this whole change? I agree with everyone who said, just add a checkmark under the current internet search mechanism. I'm guessing Valve got complaints from gamers that they only want to play on vanilla servers? Honestly, I run three servers, cod4, tf2 and counter-strike source. The main reason I run these servers is because I love the fun stuff I can do with them with the plugins. On my cs-source server, I run gungame 4. It sounds to me like Valve would de-list my server because of that? Either way, I only run the servers for my own entertainment. Nobody ever plays on my servers but me and a few of my friends and that's fine with me, like I said, I love what guys like Mani, Mattie, bailopan and several others have added to the game and I am constantly adjusted plugins, like sourcemod, among others and love trying out new addons. I really can't believe Valve hasn't tried to implement these things rather than shut them out of the gaming world. I'm not even that good of a player, but it seems to me that the servers that add things like Mani's plugin, sourcemod, etc. have more players on there and the people have a blast. How many of you guys used(when it still worked) Ptahhotep's Team Balancer(PTB), that was an awesome addition to the game, I don't think Valve has ever come out with anything as good as that. The bottom line is these are games and they are supposed to be fun, and most plugins just are made for fun. Come on Valve, let us have some fun!

You might not like that analysis but it's a fact ;p Tabs are more prominent than one more check box hidden at the bottom that people don't touch. Although either way you do it a big flashing arrow with a message the first time people log on is the only form of education I can see working atm. -- With regards, Matthew Cheale +44 (0)56 000 36985 [EMAIL PROTECTED] ================================================ This e.mail is private and confidential between Multiplay (UK) Ltd. and the person or entity to whom it is addressed.
